Somebody did say something to me the other day about Boris.
They said it must be hard for him. That it's like reaching the final level and finding that the boss you have to beat is actually yourself.
I did have a chuckle.

All above board, clearly the man for the job. £100k for 7 hours work a week? A carer gets less than £10p/hr www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-54185180Ex-Transport Secretary Chris Grayling has landed a £100,000 job advising the owner of some of the UK's top ports. The Conservative MP is working for Hutchison Ports, which operates Harwich and Felixstowe among other terminals. According to the MPs' register of financial interests, he will be paid for seven hours work a week for a year. The appointment has been approved by a Whitehall watchdog despite it raising concerns of a "perceived risk" that it may give the firm an unfair advantage. The Advisory Committee on Business Appointments (ACOBA) said Mr Grayling had reassured them he would not be advising the company on its commercial maritime activities or risks and opportunities associated with Brexit. The watchdog said the role would be limited to advising the firm, which also operates London Thamesport, on its environmental strategy and its engagement with local enterprise bodies. It said the MP must comply with these and other conditions, including a ban on him lobbying ministers on behalf of the company or giving advice on UK government tenders, until July 2021, two years after he left the cabinet. |

It's like Monty Python. I can see it now, the idiot Grayling organising trains to cross the channel on water. FFS |

Labour now overtakes the Tories in the polls.
I really wonder how long Boris can hold his position at this rate?

More importantly at this stage is that there appears to be growing unrest within his own party. He is being found out, some of us will say "we told you". Meanwhile, for a Sunday morning laugh. flip.it/.SA27J😂😂 |

Hands Face Space. Can't believe that actually happened. Conga Cummings Cash seems more apt for the conservative death cult. |

Bait for Nazis, a good barometer of the government though if it is serious. |

Hilarious considering we’ve got them to thank for the fact he’s our prime minister in the first place. Wake me up when they print a public apology on the front page for being responsible for this clown. The problem with Tories is they conveniently forget they voted Tory when the sh** hits the fan. “Me? Good God no, I didn’t vote this time round...” |

Curiously though it only relates to certain subjects- and not the obvious ones such as English, history or politics. Iirc one of the subjects it DOES apply to is sex education. I mean, that makes total sense because I always discuss the overthrow of capitalism with my Mrs when I’m giving her my 15 inches 🤷♂️ “Say naughty stuff to me!” she demands. “Communism!” I reply.... |

That`s good for a Tuesday morning chuckle.  |

I wonder what we end up with when the vaudeville leaders Trump & Boris are turfed out? Back to the Bill Clinton / Tony Blair neolib managerial act? Or full on fascist like farrage? Attachment DeletedAttachment Deleted |

A bit like their head in the sand view on brexit thinking only “racists” will vote leave. |
